In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her brother, James Burwell Binns; and three sisters, Myrtis Binns Davis, Lucylle Binns Wherry and Jackadean Binns.
She is survived by her beloved husband and son, George Miles Sr. and Jr. (aka Bub and Bubba); one sister, Joyce Binns Langston; and many beloved nieces, nephews and extended family who knew her as either Aunt Barbara or Aunt Bobbie.
